The "military" part of military medium comes from the use of the word "uniform" to denote consistency - such as that required with recruitment, dress and drilling in the Armed Forces. In Guards regiments there would be a specific height range for parade and ceremonial duties, so they all looked the same, marched in line and displayed a level of discipline and control that would signify a commitment to an ideal. Recruits even have hair cuts that are "not too long, not too short".

In cricket terms, bowling military medium means bowling all six deliveries wicket-to-wicket (not too wide, not too leg side) at 70MPH (not too fast, not too slow) on a good length (not too short, not too long). The tactic has a habit of boring batsmen out by giving them nothing to score off and forcing them to make an adjustment at the crease, out of their comfort zone.

A perfect example of this was Mark Ealham of Kent - despite many viewing him unworthy of a position in England, he was able to get players out simply by not bowling where the batsman wanted it, and refusing to vary his bowls!
